Saudi security forces battling al-Qaeda have arrested a leading militant, state television has reported.
An Interior Ministry statement said Mr Faris al-Zahrani, whom it called "one of the heads of the sedition", was arrested in a mountainous region in the south of the kingdom.
A Saudi security source said Mr Zahrani did not resist when he was arrested after security forces recognised him as he sat in a cafe in the town of Abha.
Mr Zahrani, whose messages were prominently displayed on the website of al-Qaeda's organisation in the kingdom, was on a Saudi list of 26 top wanted Islamic militants, 12 of whom are still on the run after the latest arrest.
One of three clerics on the list, he is thought to have taken a leading role in the local organisation after Saudi security forces killed its leader Mr Abdulaziz al-Muqrin in June.
The ministry said a second person was arrested along with Zahrani, but did not identify him for security reasons.
Militants linked to Saudi-born Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda have waged a 15-month campaign of suicide bombings and shootings aimed at destabilising Saudi Arabia and forcing Westerners from the birthplace of Islam.
